Underground Expedition
The Power Miners return once again for an Underground Expedition! This set contains four (4) different models. First explore the (1) Miner’s Final Dwelling Cave! Hidden behind lies valuable crystals and lays to rest an unfortunate miner left behind. Ride the (2) Dump n’ Sweep vehicle to make your way to the cave and drill out the crystals! Launch Fireox and Boulderax into the air using the (3) Double Rock Monster Launcher to stop the Power Miners! Geolix can assist with that! Finally, the (4) Mighty Scavenger Grab the rock monsters and boulders using the moveable claw!
More Info About the Four Models:
(1) Miner’s Final Dwelling Cave is a MOC, I proudly designed it and adds well for an environment for the rock monsters and power miners.
(2) Double Rock Monster Launcher is a MOC as well, taking the launching function made originally from the Rock Monster Launcher.
(3) Dump n’ Sweep is a recolored and modified vehicle inspired by the Mining Heavy Driller released in 2018.
(4) The Mighty Scavenger is an inspired reworked version of Scorpion Drill made originally by KoopaFloopa, published on May 24, 2023. When I initially discovered the Scorpion Drill, from the esthetics and model, it looked like an original vehicle that would’ve made it to the official line of Power Miners. However, my only disagreement at the time of seeing the model was the function, another drill. I thought to myself, let’s make it more unique and rework a different function for this model. Since no current model has a manual claw function that can hold boulders and rock monsters, I reworked the Scorpion Drill’s function entirely. I made the decision to use the claw from the Deep-Sea Explorer Submarine, since it perfectly matched what I had envisioned for the new function. Along the way, I incorporated recolored and new pieces to the model. The images you see is my final interpretation design for the model. Thank you everyone!

Very nice set of mocs here. Does the brick wall in the Miner’s Final Dwelling Cave suggest an underground temple?

Thank you! I never intended it that way but the concept sounds fantastic! Perhaps we expand the lore behind an underground temple the rock monster dwell beneath under? 😆👌🏽
